Cannot emulate VC lifecycle event

[sssbohdan]

Right now it's impossible to trigger lifecycle events from a code for testing. Consider this example:

    let gameViewController = GameViewController(viewModel: .init())
    gameViewController.reactive.lifecycleEvent(.viewDidAppear).observeNext { _ in
      print("called")
    }
    gameViewController.viewDidAppear(true)

Calling viewDidAppear explicitly won't print called

have you tried ?

    let gameViewController = GameViewController(viewModel: .init())
    gameViewController.reactive.lifecycleEvent(.viewDidAppear).observeNext { _ in
      print("called")
    }
    gameViewController.loadViewIfNeeded()
    gameViewController.viewDidAppear(true)
